       - Added Kanban navigation links to the dashboard and ticket list.
 
+  "1.0.3":
+    changed:
+      - Fixed Helpdesk dashboard rendering by removing dependency on missing x-app-layout/x-layouts.app components.
+      - Registered anonymous Helpdesk Blade components so x-helpdesk component views resolve correctly.
+      - Registered the Kanban Livewire component in the Helpdesk service provider.
+      - Rebuilt the ticket create page to use the correct subject/body Livewire properties.
+      - Stabilised the rich HTML editor so typing no longer clears the field or accidentally submits the ticket form.
+      - Added root layout support-menu integration instructions for enabled Helpdesk modules.
